Joan Bernal's episodes originally aired in October 2020. In December of 1988, Joan Bernal, her husband, and their children had plans to leave their home in Joliet, Illinois, and head to Texas to visit her husband's family for the holidays. Things didn't go as planned, and they weren't able to bring Joan's children from a previous marriage due to custody issues. According to Joan's husband, Gil, they decided to make the trip anyway. He later told investigators that Joan became upset during the drive and that he dropped her off near a bus stop in McAlester, Oklahoma, and gave her cash so she could return to Illinois. The plan, he said, was for Joan to pick up her other children and then fly to Texas to meet them. Joan Bernal has never been seen or heard from again.Over the years, this case has been marked by conflicting accounts, unanswered questions, and lingering uncertainty about what truly happened to Joan. Investigators and Joan's loved ones have wrestled with whether she could still be alive, whether foul play was involved, and why no verified trace of her has ever surfaced.Update:In December 2025, 37 years after Joan Bernal was last seen, the case took a significant turn. A Will County grand jury returned a sealed indictment charging Joan's husband, Gilbert Bernal, with first-degree murder in connection with her disappearance. Stay tuned through the end of Part 2 for more details on the recent developments in this case.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Some disappearances offer dozens of leads, scattered pieces investigators have to sort through. But others come down to one clue. One object, one recording, one moment that should point toward an answer but somehow doesn't and that's what we're looking at tonight.

If you assume everything both sides said in closing is true, the prosecution is in the stronger position, and Brendan Banfield is more likely than not to be found guilty. The reason isn't emotional; I'm basing it on the state's single explanation that accounts for all of the evidence. The defense spent way too much time in my opinion pointing out why individual pieces might be questioned, and while that may slow the jury down, it won't replace the prosecution's theory with a workable alternative. Even taking the defense at its best, the jury is still left with one unavoidable question: if Brendan didn't do this, how did the scene end up the way it did? Scene staging, blood transfers and timing gaps don't explain themselves. Once jurors accept that someone manipulated the crime scene after the killings handled, the focus narrows. This case will be decided on whether the physical and behavioral evidence makes sense. Whether they believe the testimony of the only person in the room with Brendan Banfield that survived and if the jury trusts the forensics.The Brendan Banfield murder trial is now officially in jury watch. Will the 90-minute argument by the defense overpower the 20-minute reminder given by the prosecutor? You can watch the entire arguments at the end of this video if you'd like. #BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #BanfieldTrial #JuryWatch #TrueCrimeCommunity #TrueCrime #Court #Bloodstain #CrimeScene #Staging #Forensics #ReasonableDoubt #HomicideTrial #AggravatedMurder #FairfaxCounty #VirginiaCourts #GIS #Esri #ArcGISSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Episode 118 Jill Kloppenburg    In early January, 2025, 47 year old Jill Kloppenburg went missing from Lowell, MA, and has not been seen since. Jill had been battling addiction, and recent losses in her life compounded the issue. When she vanished, she was staying with someone temporarily, and some reports say that she was worried for her personal safety right before she vanished. Jill left behind some of her belongings, and has not been on social media. At least one person made the claim that Jill had died from an overdose, but it was never proven, and she remains missing. Jill's friend Ann is the guest in this episode, and she describes the collective efforts to find out what happened to Jill.  At the time she went missing, Jill was described as a White female, standing 5ft3 with Brown hair and Blue eyes. She weighed 120 pounds. She has a tattoo on her lower back of a tribal design, and a tattoo on her inner groin of two hearts with faces inside each heart. If you have information about Jill, please contact the Tewksbury Police Dept (978) 851-7373. A $5000 reward has been offered in this case.  To learn more about Jill's case, check out the Missing Jill Kloppenburg Facebook group.    To listen to every episode of Missing Persons early, and ad-free, and get other benefits, simply  visit our channel page on Apple Podcasts to get started with an AbJack Insider subscription.  Follow us on social media; https://linktr.ee/missingpersonspodcast   ©2026 AbJack Entertainemt- All rights reserved.

Newly unsealed search warrants are revealing disturbing new details in the Saratoga Springs homicide investigation involving Jessica Lyman and her 8-year-old son Eli Painter. Let's walk through what police documents actually show about the investigation conducted by the Saratoga Springs Police Department, including forensic evidence, surveillance video, digital records, handwritten notes, and signs of sexual assault. This newly released information confirms that investigators are focusing inward, not outward. It's not rumor or speculation, it's what the documents tell us.#JessicaLyman #EliPainter #SaratogaSprings #SaratogaSpringsPolice #UtahTrueCrime #WillowbrookLane #ABC4News #CBSNews #LawAndCrime #JesseWeber #UtahHomicide #ProfilingEvil #TrueCrimeYouTube #UnsealedWarrants #ForensicEvidence #GunshotResidue #SexualAssaultInvestigation #JuvenileJustice ========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/======================================== 20% OFF Newspapers.com https://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26======================================== Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

In this Feedback Friday field trip, I take you directly into the heart of Short Creek, known today as Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Arizona. It once was the historic stronghold of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, the FLDS. This is the community built around plural marriage, prophetic control, and absolute obedience, led for decades by self-proclaimed prophet Warren Jeffs, now serving life in a Texas prison for sexually assaulting young girls. As we drive through the streets of this once-sealed polygamist enclave, we stop at key locations that defined FLDS power: the massive compound built by Warren Jeffs' father Rulon Jeffs to house eighty-seven wives, the offices where obedience was enforced, and the meeting house where men were stripped of their families from the pulpit. You'll see where Jeffs escaped federal arrest, how the United Effort Plan centralized wealth and control, and how law enforcement was sidelined by church authority. We'll revisit the scars of history, including the infamous 1953 Short Creek Raid, the infant cemetery that still haunts investigators, and the burial grounds reserved only for the faithful. Along the way, we talk about secret police, hidden caves, the collapse of the FLDS corporate structure, and the uneasy reality that Warren Jeffs still exerts influence from behind prison walls. #Polygamy #PluralMarriage #FLDS #WarrenJeffs #RulonJeffs #ShortCreek #Hildale #ColoradoCity #ShortCreekRaid #1953Raid #FLDSCrimes #CultCrime #ReligiousAbuse #CoerciveControl #CriminalCults #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #CultSurvivors #PolygamyAbuse #ChildAbuseAwareness #FLDSHistory #CrimeDocumentary #ProfilingEvil #JusticeForVictims #HumanTrafficking #ReligiousExtremism #CultAccountability ========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================FLDS StoryMap: https://arcg.is/0Gm4r1 ========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

In this special bonus episode of Profiling Evil, I sit down with producer Aaron Mason to go behind the scenes of Gardens of Evil: Inside the Zion Society Cult. This is a rare look at how one of the darkest and most complex cult investigations I've ever worked came together as an audio series. We discuss what surprised Aaron most when he first stepped into the Zion Society world, how survivor voices shaped the narrative, and the creative decisions that defined this series. This episode pulls back the curtain on the storytelling itself—and why telling this story the right way mattered. Gardens of Evil: Inside the Zion Society Cult premieres February 3 as Season 5 of American Nightmares under the Gamut Podcast Network.#ProfilingEvil #GardensOfEvil #ZionSociety #ZionSocietyCult #InsideTheZionSociety #Deceived #GardensOfEvilPodcast #ArvinShreeve #AmericanNightmares #AaronMason #MikeKing #CultInvestigation #CultSurvivors #SurvivorVoices #TrueCrimePodcast #InvestigativePodcast #BehindTheScenes #BehavioralAnalysis #MappingEvil #UtahCrime #CultDynamics #EthicalStorytelling #TrueCrimeCommunity #Podcast #Gamut20% OFF Newspapers.com https://newspapers.com/ProfilingEvil========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

September 2, 2002. Studio City, California. In the early morning hours of September 2, 2002, a luxury Mercedes SUV was found aflame in the upscale neighborhood of Studio City, California. After the flames were put out, firefighters found the bodies of Michael Tardio and Chris Monson inside. Both had been shot execution-style. Investigators quickly started talking to people who knew the men. The story that unraveled involved a Playboy Playmate, a Wall Street Whiz Kid, and a $1 million jewelry deal. And left the question: Who murdered Michael and Chris?Check out the new History of Generation Why series on Patreon! patreon.com/generationwhySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On June 13, 2016, 44-year-old Amy McHale said goodbye to her mother and left her home in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Nothing about that moment suggested it would be the last time her family would see her, but it was.In the early morning hours of June 14, Amy called her daughter, Amanda, and left a voicemail. When Amanda listened to the message later that morning, it didn't raise any immediate alarm bells, but when she tried to call her mother back, it went straight to voicemail. In the message, Amy said she was staying at her ex-husband's house, something she did from time to time. At first, no one was overly concerned. Amy was an adult who had her own routines, and everyone assumed she would resurface, as she always had before. As hours turned into days with no word, concern for Amy began to grow. Amy's ex-husband told family members that she had been at his home when he went to bed on the night of June 13, but when he woke up the next morning, Amy was gone. From that point forward, there were no confirmed sightings or clear answers about where she may have gone.Nearly a decade has passed since Amy vanished, and her loved ones are still searching for answers, holding onto hope that someone knows what happened and will finally decide to step forward.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Amy McHale, please contact the Philadelphia Police Department at (215) 686-3013.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Four lives were lost in the early morning darkness of Colts Neck, New Jersey. Keith Caneiro and his wife Jennifer… along with their eleven-year-old son Jesse and their eight-year-old daughter Sophia died inside their own home. But this case isn't just about what happened inside that house. Hours earlier, flames were already rising at another Caneiro residence miles away. As investigators peeled back the layers, they began to question whether this family was targeted and could it be even more intimate. Now, Paul Caneiro, the victims' own brother and uncle, stands trial for the murder of four people and prosecutors are laying out a chilling story of greed, deception, and desperation. The defense is arguing Paul is the victim of a botched investigation, tunnel-vision and assumptions, rather than proof. Who killed the Caneiro's? And the answer to that question may determine everything.#PaulCaneiro #KeithCaneiro #JenniferCaneiro #JesseCaneiro #SophiaCaneiro #ColtsNeck #OceanTownship #MonmouthCounty #NJTrial #CourtTV #NicoleWallace #ChrisDecker #MonicaMastellone #ProfilingEvil #TrueCrimeCommunity #GIS #Esri #Crime #Criminal #Trial #GardensOfEVIL========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

This week on Feedback Friday, I'm answering a few questions that have been sitting with me because they all point to the same thing—how violence builds, how people justify it, and how easy it is to miss the warning signs until it's too late. We talk about long-term cyber harassment and what it does to someone when it never quite rises to the level of criminal charges. We walk carefully through what's known so far in the murders of Monique and Spencer Tepe and the case against Michael McKee, separating what's been alleged from what's being speculated. I also talk about some of the cases that have stayed with me over the years, including the Lafferty Brothers and a quiet case involving a seven-week-old baby named Ian Wing. And finally, we look at the Florida teen who murdered his mother and what that case says about desensitization, fantasy, and developing minds. None of this is meant to shock you, it's meant to make you stop and think.#FeedbackFriday #TrueCrimeCommunity #ProfilingEvil #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #DanLafferty #RonLafferty #IanWing #GrievanceKiller #IntimatePartnerViolence #CyberStalking #VictimAdvocacy #CriminalPsychology #JusticeMatters #ColdCases #TrueCrimeYouTube #DerekRosa #ElinaGarcia #FloridaTeen #MatricideSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Day six of testimony in the Brendan Banfield murder trial wasn't about theatrics, it was about how this case was built, how investigators handled competing theories, and how leadership drew a hard line between collecting digital evidence and over-interpreting it. The defense tried to turn digital forensics into doubt, leaning hard on a simple idea: you can't always tell who's behind the screen. And that sounds persuasive… until you remember what trials are actually decided on: the totality of the evidence, the blood evidence, timelines, behavior, opportunity, contradictions, and corroboration. A police commander pulled no punches explaining why a digital forensics detective was removed from major-crimes digital work: not because the extraction steps were botched, but because leadership believed the detective was making “unsubstantiated deductions”, reading conclusions into data that the science alone couldn't support. And just as important: a lot of the “transfers” the defense tried to make look suspicious sounded like what they often are in big agencies, routine, normal rotations, or career moves, not purging people for failing to follow a preconceived theory.#BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #JulianaPeresMagalhaes #AuPairAffair #FairfaxCounty #VirginiaTrial #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #ProfilingEvil #DigitalForensics #CatfishTheory #CourtroomRecap #JusticeForChristine #GIS #Esri #BentEarSolutions #Banfield #BanfieldTestifies #WillHeTestify #Testifying #DefendantTestifies #OnTheStand #UnderOath #CourtroomDrama #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #TrueCrimeDaily #TrialWatch #CourtTV #CrimeTok #Justice #MurderTrial #CrimeNewshttps://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/20% OFF Newspapers.com https://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com

The first day of defense witnesses in the Brendan Banfield trial left me frustrated. The opening swing-for-the-fences motion to dismiss, the crime scene body-worn camera audio and the full-court press on the digital evidence, because if you can't prove who was behind the screen, you can't prove who was behind the setup. But the thing that really tightened my jaw was the defense pushing the idea that Christine Banfield may have had a “blood disorder” that may have made her bleed more easily. NO! Having your throat slit is what makes you lose blood quickly. Her carotid arteries were cut, and her neck was catastrophically wounded by someone wielding a knife. That's what killed her and the state says her killer, was her husband. #BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #JulianaPeresMagalhaes #AuPairAffair #FairfaxCounty #Virginia #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #CourtroomDrama #BodyCam #DigitalForensics #BloodstainPatternAnalysis #FetLife #CatfishTheory #ReasonableDoubt #JusticeForChristine #JusticeForJoseph See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Commonwealth rested its case in the Brendan Banfield murder trial, closing with bloodstain evidence, forensic testimony, and emotional witnesses meant to tie the story together. But instead of landing with impact, the State's final witnesses felt muted — even flat. Today we break down what helped the prosecution, how the defense systematically dismantled key moments, and why the most important truth of this case may not have been driven home hard enough: Christine Banfield was murdered in her own home by the one person she should have been able to trust. #BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #BanfieldTrial #StateRests #FlatlineClosing #TrueCrime #TrialWatch #CourtroomRecap #BloodEvidence #ForensicTestimony #ProfilingEvil #JusticeForChristine #JusticeForJosephSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Greg McCurdy also breaks down how policing has changed over the last 12 years—from technology to culture to public expectations.

In the days leading up to Thanksgiving 2025, the family and friends of 59-year-old Daniel Davis began to grow increasingly concerned. Dan was known as deeply reliable. His coworkers couldn't even remember him missing a single day of work in decades. Much of Dan's life revolved around his job at 115 Bourbon Street, a well-known music venue in Merrionette Park, Illinois, a southwest suburb just outside the city of Chicago.They soon learned that Dan had been involved in a car accident late on the night of Monday, November 24. After the crash, Dan was dropped off at his workplace, where he walked inside and briefly greeted the two remaining coworkers. In the early morning hours of November 25, Dan was seen walking away from 115 Bourbon Street.Once Dan's loved ones learned about the accident, questions immediately followed. Where was he, and why wasn't he answering calls or text messages? Had Dan sought medical attention afterward? As hours passed without contact, it became clear that something was wrong. Dan was reported missing to the Chicago Police Department, and surveillance footage began to surface.Almost immediately, they noticed something troubling. The surveillance footage was bizarre, but it didn't clearly point to what had happened or where Dan might have gone. When they entered his apartment, they found items left in a manner out of character, deepening the confusion rather than providing answers. The final known surveillance video of Dan was recorded on Wednesday, November 26, around 6:30 p.m. Dan was seen exiting a church in Blue Island, Illinois, a community just south of Chicago. After that moment, Dan Davis vanished without a trace.Despite exhaustive search efforts by law enforcement, family, friends, and volunteers, no further confirmed sightings or answers have emerged. Nearly two months later, what happened to Dan Davis remains a mystery.If you have any information about the disappearance of Dan Davis, please contact the Chicago Police Department Area 2 Special Victims Unit at (312) 747-8274.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The first week of the Brendan Banfield murder trial cracked open two very different stories. Prosecutors say this was a calculated plan of deception, timing, and staging that left a wife and a stranger dead in the same bedroom. The defense says the case is built on a deal, a delayed story, and an investigation that didn't challenge its own assumptions. Jurors heard the 911 calls, first-responder accounts, medical findings, and the opening testimony of the au pair at the center of it all. Now the question isn't just what happened, it's who you believe when the evidence starts pushing back. #BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan#JulianaMagalhaes #FairfaxCounty #VirginiaTrial #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #TrialWatch #CourtroomRecap #OpeningStatements #ForensicEvidence #BloodEvidence #DigitalForensics #Catfish #FetLife #AuPair #911Call #CrimeScene #JusticeForChristine #JusticeForJoseph #TrueCrimeYouTube #ProfilingEvilSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On January 12, 2025, 50-year-old Robert Maguire, known to those closest to him as Bobby, said goodbye to his father and boarded a bus in Wilmington, Delaware. His destination was Scranton, Pennsylvania. Those cities are only about 2 to 3 hours apart, but the route the bus Bobby boarded included a stop at the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City, where he was expected to transfer to a second bus bound for Scranton. On the other end of the trip, Bobby's cousin was waiting for a call to let him know he had arrived and was ready to be picked up. That call never came.At first, the silence did not raise an immediate alarm. Bobby's cousin assumed he had decided not to make the trip. His family in Delaware believed he had arrived safely. As more time passed with no word from Bobby, those assumptions fell away, and the family realized something was wrong. What makes Bobby's disappearance especially difficult is the uncertainty of where it occurred. Somewhere between Wilmington, New York City, and Scranton, Bobby vanished. With multiple buses, a major transit hub, and time unaccounted for, his last confirmed location remains unclear. This has left his family unsure where to focus their search. One year later, they're still searching for answers.If you have any information about the disappearance of Robert Maguire, please contact the Wilmington Police Department at (302) 654-5151.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
